Pacific Railway ear containing exhibiti of
tloe mineral and vegetable lweeilths-Wthe
Northwest Territories arrived here on
Thursday, in. charge of Oapt.'0. W..Allan,
emigration conmussiond. The Car was
visited by a great many pePple, ,ealleof
whom went away expresaing -; orp9se,sets
the great resources of the, vas tei iittn7
zo
to the north west of us. Mr. A san-Who
by the way, is an old newspaper wom-
an(' his assistants were moSts courteous,
and afford every informetion to enquirers,
ancl they had a great many questions to
answer. It is impossible to .describe the'
exhibit at length but it few ofthoseeihich
seemed to claim special attention might
be mentioned. A section of Douglas fir
from the townsite of Vancouver, the
western terminus of the C. P. R., plann-
ed special attention. In no mistake it is
a giant log, aud is bound with iron,. brac-
ing,s to the car. It is 24 feet in c mum-
\
ference and 561 years old, the calcu ation
of the growth of the tebes. An, ther
thing which considerable interest AiraS
\
manifested in was a maple leaf from the
same locality, rimming 21 inches across.,
i,
The display of natural grasses from the
prairie regions were 10i feet -high . T °A
with wild pea vines; wild vetches, ild`
hop and wild hemp claimed a great , eal
of attention as did also the mineral from
the north shore of Lake Stiperior tcqn-
tributed by the Port Arthur BO fd of
Trade. This exhibit was made tip of
rich specimens of gold, silver, le d and I
t
copper ores, baryta freestone i etc. /
Another interesting feature of the , 5thibit
was picturesque views of Rock IVIdii t in
scenery, which gave one some idea of the
romantic scenery of the country ; also
fine displays of grains of all kinds from
the provinces and territories traversed by
the C. P. R. from Fort William to the
Pacific coast, together with squashes,
water melons, pompkins, vegitable mar-
rows, potatoes, ebc., from equally wide
spread localities. The sample of linseed
oil cake, which took firet prize at the In-
dustrial Exhibition last year, Was also on
exhibition ; oatmeal inanufectured in
Winnipeg, ami a hundred other thing's,
As mention before, the exhibit claimed a
great deal of interest from citizens and
farmers in the iminediate vicinity,
John W. Stephens, of Adelaide, had the
mist ntitne to lose his valuable horse "Can -
5155 FeVorite," which died some days ago
after a few hours' sickness.
